Failure Analysis Engineer - 718604

Description

Job Description:

This is an entry level position for a technical college graduate. As a Failure Analysis Engineer you will be part of our Technology Development and Manufacturing Labs responsible for locating yield and reliability limiting failures on SRAM test vehicles and leading product chips for Intel's next generation Silicon, Assembly or Test Process Development and Manufacturing. The candidate must work in concert with Integration, Yield, Device and Quality & Reliability Engineers to enable robust failure rate models and risk assessments of the silicon/assembly processes under development to improve process performance, product yield, quality and/or reliability. The scope may include wafer and unit level Front-end Module, Back-End/Far Back-End Modules, Package Assembly, or Environmental Stress/Test capability.

Your responsibilities will include but are not be limited to:

· Utilizing lab equipment's such as Dual Beam Electron microscope, polishers, dimplers, dry and wet etchers to prepare samples for failure analysis, electrical probing and TEM analysis

· Utilizing modern techniques in fault isolation such as IREM, LADA, nano-probing and TIVA to locate fails quickly and reliably

· Developing new sample preparation techniques and electrical probing techniques for future generation device failure analysis.

· Authoring failure analysis reports and identifying root causes.

· Supporting new process/product transfer and startup and the automation and improvement of the failure analysis process.

· Collaborating with integration, device, and yield Engineers to assist in risk assessments.
